Garlic & Spice Plantain Chips

Ingredients

• 2 plantains
• 2 Tbsolive oil
• 1 tspgarlic powder
• 0.5 tsppaprika
• 0.5 tspcumin
• 0.3 tspground pepper
• 0.5 tspsalt

Equipment

• bowl
• baking sheet
• baking paper
• oven

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mats.
2. Cut off both ends of the plantains. Make a cut along the entire length of a plantain, and peel off the skin.
3. Slice each plantain into thin slices. Dont worry if the slices are not perfect.
4. Place the plantains in a medium-sized bowl.
5. Mix in all the other ingredients and stir until everything is well incorporated.
6. Place the plantain slices on the baking sheets in a single layer.
7. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, flipping them at about the 8- or 9-minute mark. Because of the uneven heat distribution in my oven, I also like to swap the baking sheets between the top and bottom racks.
8. Remove the chips from the oven when the edges turn into a nice golden brown color.
